HBO's "Girls" Celebrates Dysfunction

January 13, 2013

In a healthy society, a train wreck like Lena Dunham would
be a painful embarrassment. But in a satanically possessed society, she
is the new normal.

by Henry Makow Ph.D.

The Illuminati (Cabalist) Jews who run Hollywood have found anotherweapon in their war on humanity. It is a "comedy" that details the squalid sex lives of 20-something girls who are feminist roadkill, (i.e. victims of feminist ideology.)

"Girls," which won "Best Comedy" at the Golden Globe Awards Sunday night, is spreading worldwide like a virus. Its writer, producer and star, Lena Dunham, 26, who won "Best Actress," has used her wit and chutzpah to market her dysfunctional life as emblematic of her generation.

While most people squirm at the many nauseous sex scenes and the general vacuity of these girls, many in the worldwide audience will miss the intended irony. They will accept Dunham as a role model.

Lena Dunham is rich and famous. How bad could her lifestyle be?

[At least,Howard Stern
wasn't buying it. He went on a rant about "Girls" last Monday: "It's a little fat girl who kinda looks like Jonah
Hill and she keeps taking her clothes off and it kind of feels like
rape... I don't want to see that. I learned that
this little fat chick writes the show and directs the show and that
makes sense to me because she's such a camera hog that the other
characters barely are on."

The Illuminati reward their Illuminati Jewish "change agents" with book contracts. This is where Obama made his millions. Dunham got a $3.7 million advance from Random House for a proposal for an advice book based on her personal history of psychotherapy, anorexia, promiscuity and feminist indoctrination.

She can be compared with Betty Friedan (The Feminine Mystique), Helen Gurley Brown (Sex and the Single Girl), Eve Ensler (The Vagina Monologues) and Darren Starr ( Sex in the City.) (Interesting that Obama's mother's Jewish father was also a Dunham.)

The Illuminati "Culture Division" use these people to normalize the perverse and ugly. It's all part of humanity's induction into their satanic cult -- Jewish Cabalism-- which reverses good and evil, making sick seem healthy.

FEMINISM

What do women really want? They want emotional and material security. They want love, commitment, marriage and children. But feminism has taught them to seek careers instead, (because marriage and family are "oppressive.")

Young women today are dysfunctional because their minds are at war with their natural instincts.

In the bad old days, men had to court and marry a woman to get sex. He had to love her. Now, thanks to feminism, women give their bodies first and hope someone eventually will love them afterward. Feminists call this "empowerment."

Lena Dunham's generation is a mess because women aren't equipped to compete in the rat race and be wives and mothers too. Their instincts are telling them one thing, and society another. They have been deliberately sabotaged.

(It's a question of priority. Someone has to make family number one. That doesn't mean women shouldn't have careers. And of course, not all women want families.)

In a healthy society, a train wreck like Lena Dunham would be a painful embarrassment. But in a satanically possessed society, she is the new normal.

The series opened with Lena's parents cutting her off financially. She demands an allowance of $1100 a month for 22 mos to finish her "novel." She even has 6 pages to show them. They laugh in her face. She seeks solace in sex with her loser-boyfriend who is also supported by his family.

Her boyfriend treats her like dirt but she regards sex as a facsimile for love. She'll have sex with anyone who will have her. In general, the "girls" and their male friends seem unable to communicate without using the coinage of copulation.

Lena gets a STD from the loser and has a vaginal exam. Meanwhile her friend is having an abortion but miscarries while having sex with a pick up.

Lena has a job interview but sabotages her chances by making an offensive wisecrack. And on it goes, copious animal coupling with a catalog of relationship permutations, female neuroses and toilet accidents.

We are supposed to love this spectacle for the quips. The girls talk like they are in an English Lit seminar but the dialogue is often quite good: "Bisexuals and Germans are the only people you are allowed to hate these days." "You said I made you feel like a giant clit." "My boyfriend is so respectful, he is beginning to feel like a weird uncle."

A lot of the credit should go to Jennifer Konner, an experienced writer and story editor. I only wish she and Dunham could devote their talents to presenting a positive model. Instead of sentimentalizing the problem, I'd like to see them analyze and solve it. But then the show would be canceled.

In the 1950's, TV presented functional families and positive role models.

Today, TV is a cesspool of obscenity and soft core porn; zombies, vampires and the occult; Armageddon, violence and gore, all designed to degrade humanity and normalize the sick and ugly.

From your recent essay on HBO's "Girls":

Young women today are dysfunctional because their minds are at war with their natural instincts.

In the bad old days, men had to court and marry a woman to get sex. He had to love her. Now, thanks to feminism, women give their bodies first and hope someone eventually will love them afterward. Feminists call this "empowerment."

Truly some of your most insightful narrative. Young women should be made to memorize those words, as I was taught to memorize Biblical verses in Sunday School.

Keep up the good work, Henry.

In response to A below, I don't think Henry is speaking for all women, but he has opened the blinds for many who are unhappy with their choices and they don't know why.

I lost my job 3 years ago, and haven't been able to find anything since. So now I'm a stay at home wife, and everything the world tells me is that I should feel guilty, useless and worthless, that I'm a burden to society even though we pay our bills on time and claim no social services benefits. My lack of employment means I'm not paying taxes, and thus, not giving back to society, even though society has given nothing to back me. Nevermind the fact that my house has been kept better than ever, I have taken care of extended family members through multiple sicknesses (something I'd never have been able to do while working), and spend the rest of my time caring for my husband when he's not at his high stress job; all those things mean nothing if I'm not working.

I could tell you that despite the sacrifices we make, I'm happier than I've ever been working. I could tell you that my husband doesn't want me to go back to work, despite having sworn in the past that as long as he was working, I needed to be working too. I could tell you that now, after 8 years of marriage, and many failed attempts at having children, I am finally in a position to get healthy and conceive a child. But I suspect that's not what you want to hear because it doesn't apply to you.

I don't agree with everything written on this site, but there is a lot of wisdom here, especially on feminism. Girls who are lost and hurting because the world tells them being lost and hurt is normal and healthy, they need to know there's another way and that it's OK to think and feel differently. It's OK to want a family to nurture and home to care for, that there is value and worth in those things. It's OK to not want to spend your life toiling away in a high stress job that can destroy your health both mentally and physically. It's OK to not destroy your body and soul by giving out to any man who's willing to abuse you.

Tradition isn't to be feared but celebrated, and the shedding of all things old doesn't mean the new is better just because it's "progress." More women need to hear these things, and very few places are willing and able to tell them.

I am a woman who likes her job, her career – if you prefer – and I can’t imagine myself being a staying-home mother. It is NOT what I want, despite what you’re trying to tell me.

I enjoy being a mother, a wife and at the same time going to work every day. It fulfills me altogether. I don’t want to have just my job, or just my husband or just my kids. I’m happy with having it all.

I don’t have to work – I believe, we could easily afford to pay the bills with my husband’s salary but I choose to work, because I simply enjoy it
I understand, you may have a different opinion, but, please, don’t speak for all the women. It’s simply not true.

Dear A

I am not suggesting women not have careers, but only that they put marriage and family first.

I enjoyed your article today, and you are spot-on about "Girls". I have thought about this show myself, and how young women have degenerated even further over the last 15 years, from idolizing Sex and the City (hardly a great work of high art), to this epic new low. The Sex and the City characters were certainly as vapid and promiscuous as the 'Girls', but at least they had professional lives. They had interesting careers, flashy apartments, designer clothes - one can see the ostensible 'glamour' and why young women might aspire to it.

I cannot even begin to comprehend, however, why young women might aspire to 'Girls', or even what there is to aspire to. But apparently they have and do, which confirms just how fast and far society is falling. At least there are still people 'waking up' and seeing through it all though, which gives some encouragement 'they' haven't won the battle quite yet.

Dan said (January 14, 2013):

I threw out television in 2008 so I was unaware of "Girls" till I stumbled across a clip on Youtube last week. The clip showed the fat girl ranting to another about "boys", which cut to a scene of the girls in a bathtub together. The fat girl said, "I can't get in a bathtub without farting" and they both laughed. I take it this was closing scene of an episode.

My take on it is that it's another celebration of infantilism, promoting arrested development as something to aspire to.

Luckily the impression that most youth are living this way is exaggerated. Unluckily, during my youth to middle age I was in that strata of society that emulates television values and behaviors. I knew women who really did get gonorrhea or chlamydia from one night stands, or had abortions, or miscarriages while having sex with a pick up. These are not funny things in real life. They're traumatic, life scarring tragedies. This comedy show probably won't include the occasional suicides, overdoses, or stupid accidents that go with the aimless, random life these characters are glamorizing. Try to imagine the characters on this show when they're 50. Will they live that long? And if they do, who will care?

David said (January 14, 2013):

As always, you published another great article. Until you wrote about Lena Dunham I never even heard of her. She is another brain washed Liberal Jew who wants social justice for everyone. This woman cannot think for herself and is not open to other points of views. She has swallowed the Kool Aid she has been given by Hollywood.

Now according to the Huffington Post she will not get married until Gay Marriage is legal in all 50 states of the USA. She has not read the Hebrew Scriptures and now she wants to give God the bird. This is in fact one lost person. She is indeed one ugly woman. God help us all.
